Norwegian Foreign minister wants Arnold, not Albert
Quick translation of central point in this article, from the Norw. FM's letter to Arnold Schwarzenegger:

http://e24.no/oppogfrem/article2037768.ece

Støre wants Schwarzenegger

"I have closely followed your strong involvement in the world's climate change and the development of your wideranging politics to reduce the greenhouse effect in California. Your dedicated efforts to wake people up, and the need for political measures to fight global warming is an inspiration for us all."

So, we have Gore vs. Schwarzenegger - which of these are most widely acknowledged for their environmental work? I have never heard of Arnolds work in this area at all. This minister is supposedly belonging on the left side of the political spectrum, being a Labour party politician.

How political is this letter? I'm not thinking about environmental politics.

1. Kick for the evening crowd
If you want to mail him about why Albert really does have a lot more in common with you guys, not to mention democracy in general, and that Arnolds muscles in this area seems a bit pumped up and made to display on a photo-op, well ...
